Tygacil®(Tigecycline) for Deep Lung Delivery

[0029] The commercial Tygacil®2nd Generation product was used to conduct the study. Sterile Water for injection and 0.9% Normal Saline were used at diluents. Tygacil® is a sterile, lyophilized powder for intravenous infusion, containing 53 mg of the Tigecycline active ingredient. Tygacil® additionally contains lactose monohydrate as a diluent / stabilizer and hydrochloric acid and / or sodium hydroxide (as needed) for pH adjustment. The product is supplied in a single dose; Type I, clear, glass vial, sealed under a blanket of nitrogen with a gray butyl rubber stopper and a snap-off aluminum crimp seal.

The Quantitative Composition of Tygacil® is Depicted in Table 1 Below.

Abstract

A method of treating respiratory disorders by delivering antibiotic to the lung alveoli using an aerosol drug delivery system.

Description

[0001] This application claims priority from co-pending U.S. provisional application No. 60 / 811672 filed on Jun. 7, 2006.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] The present invention is directed to a method of treating respiratory disorders by delivering antibiotic to the lung alveoli. [0003] Known aerosol drug delivery systems include, for example, a unit dose dry-powder inhaler, a dry powder pulmonary device, a pressurized metered dose inhaler, a metered-dose inhaler, a nebulizer, and the like. However, these systems have not been applied to delivery of antibiotics to the lungs to treat cystic fibrosis. [0004] Some aerosol devices are capable of delivering the smaller droplet sizes needed for deep lung penetration. One commercially available example is the SWIRLER® aerosol drug delivery system which is described at amici-inc.com, and in U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,603,314, 5,630,409, 5,611,332 and 6,230,703, which patents are incorporated by reference herein. [0005] As described in greater detail...
